HOUSTON, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Kinder Morgan has started shutting down parts of its KMCC pipeline system for crude and condensate, its Double Eagle pipeline, several gas storage facilities and compressor stations due to Hurricane Harvey, the firm said on Friday.

The pipeline operating firm said the measures have been taken in preparation for high winds and heavy rain, which could affect portions of its Tennessee Gas Pipeline (TGP), Texas Interstate system and its Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America (NGPL), the largest transporter of gas into Chicago.
